My mother's maiden name was Blesch and her ancesters came from Germany, a village called Schwabhausen, Mosbach, Baden, Germany in Wurttemberg. She left me quite a bit of information to start with and I went to the LDS Family History Library in Mesa, AZ to start and then to a Family History library on Ashland Ave. in Phoenix. When I put my great grandfather's name in the computer it gave me his whole family. He was one of eleven kids but I don't think that all of them lived to adulthood. Thanks to someone else's research of which my great great grandfather was a part I received information that took the Blesch family line back to the 1600's and I figured that is far enough. There is one error in the research I received from this other person and I need to do some more research on my own to correct it. One of my great grandfather's sisters is shown as having died May 17 1832 and my research shows that she married Johann Michael Balbach on January 06, 1848 and they had four children.
